Cheerleaders: A Fictional Narrative
“Don’t you usually sit over there?” I pointed to the football players and the cheerleaders.
“Yeah, but I’d rather sit with you
They were all staring; my guess was that they were waiting for him to sit with them. The girls were giving me hateful looks and I had a feeling him sitting with me would piss them off.
“Fine, but you have to be nice to my friend.”
He eyes went up in surprise. “Friend? Did Taylor James already make a friend? It better not be a guy.”

    Cheer is not just a sport. It is intense physical activity with a purpose- to serve as a motivation for the team. Taking two full sport seasons, the dedication and energy required from these young cheerleaders is unbelievable. For up to 2 1/2 hours a day, they work together to achieve their goal: perfect routines to make the Hilltop Football and Basketball teams engulf in victories. These devoted cheerleaders spent 3 days at Cheer Camp and one day at the District Camp, where they expanded their knowledge and creativity for our school.

    Essay On NFL Cheerleaders

    • 1433 Words
    • 6 Pages

    In the past three years, the NFL has faced a multitude of lawsuits dealing with the unfair payment of NFL cheerleaders. Multiple different articles support the cheerleaders, agreeing that an average of a $1,000 salary each year is unfair. However, other articles are against a higher payment, claiming that cheerleaders work because they enjoy the sport, rather than for the money. While Megan McArdle’s article, “NFL Cheerleaders Don’t Do it for the Money” uses informal diction, comparisons to other jobs, and concession to the opposition to support the claim that the cheerleaders do not deserve to be paid more, “Who Do We Under-Compensate?”, by Ira Boudway, uses a more formal diction, statistics, and concession to the other side of the argument to support the opposite.…

    For the past four years, I’ve been captain of my all-star cheerleading team. My teammates are a diverse group of girls, ranging from ten to seventeen years old. Working with a large age group has made me a more patient person. It takes more time and effort to answer a ten-year-old’s question, than a question from a fifteen or sixteen-year-old. I also must be willing to take my time when explaining parts of routines, because everyone learns and understands at different speeds and levels. Along with this patience, I have developed an ability to comfort people. Younger team members often become frustrated by challenging tumbling passes and stunts, when this happens I intervene. I comfort them by providing much needed aid, not solving the problem…

    One day, I was at my regular cheer practice, but this practice in particular was very difficult to get through. I was already having an off day, and I was so ready to go home I could barely stand it. As we were doing our final stunts, my mom came in to watch us. She looked really upset, and you could definitely tell she had been crying. I was really worried because she doesn’t really cry much.
